The two fathers and sons got Cheng Ling's guidance, and suddenly became enlightened, and Zhou Changtian immediately instructed Zhou Zhiyuan and Fu Bo to go to Xiangcheng to prepare to break up the whole and purchase materials in large quantities.

As for himself, after more than a year of cultivation, the realm has loosened a lot, and he is planning to attack the middle stage of the tribulation in one go.

Cheng Ling called him over and said, "Master Zhou, there is another reluctant invitation below. ”

Zhou Changtian was stunned for a moment and asked, "Your Excellency, please command." ”

"I heard that your Zhou family is good at making talismans, I don't know what grade it is?"

Zhou Changtian sighed and said: "Your Excellency doesn't know, although my Zhou family has been mainly operating talismans for ten thousand years, but it has been suppressed by the Ouyang family, and there is no good development, and a large number of elite children of the family have been lost. ”

"The rest are some people with mediocre qualifications, although they have a family inheritance of tens of thousands of years, they only have seven grades, which is slightly inferior to the Ouyang family. ”

Cheng Ling asked, "Where are these family inheritances?"

"In the clan land, fewer and fewer family members are willing to study the Fu Dao. ”

Cheng Ling said: "In that case, how about I make a deal with your Zhou family?"

Zhou Changtian was confused and said: "Your Excellency, but there is an invitation, the Zhou family is unwilling, what kind of deal is there to talk about." ”

Cheng Ling said: "These are two different things, it's like this, tomorrow I will bring some of the sect disciples here, among them are good at the four ways of the Dan Fu Array." I told you before that I will definitely help your Zhou family become the top force in the south. ”

"I mean, for the other three paths, you can choose some excellent ones among the children of the family to learn from each other, and as for the Fu Dao, please ask the Zhou family master to open the door of convenience, and let the disciples of my sect go to the place of inheritance to comprehend. ”

Zhou Changtian was stunned, and said with great joy: "Your Excellency, you ...... Do you really mean to teach us the cultivation of the other three realms?"

"Yes, it's kind of interconnected!"

"That's a good feeling, when they come, Zhou sent someone to greet them. ”

Cheng Ling hurriedly stopped: "Don't worry, they will come soon, and there is no need for the head of the Zhou family to greet them." In the inner valley, I set up a teleportation array, and as long as they pass through the teleportation array, they can enter the valley. ”

"Remember, this is the biggest secret of the Zhou family, and it is best that only the head of the family knows it, understand!"

Zhou Changtian looked at Cheng Ling in disbelief, speechless for a long time, the other party's methods were endless, and even the teleportation array was set up. In the future, the connection between the family monks and the Famous Sword Academy will only become closer, so they will be strong, and I am afraid that the family will not be able to climb to the top ranks.

He didn't know that Cheng Ling was not bringing a monk from the Famous Sword Academy, but from the Wuxiang Sword Sect.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly said: "This is very good, after the disciples of the Venerable are in place, Zhou will order Qi'er to receive them in person and go to the place where the ancestors left their inheritance." ”

"Zhou Qi?" Cheng Ling was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "She is good at runes?"

Zhou Changtian smiled bitterly: "This girl is indeed spoiled by the old man, but his rune talent is the top in this generation, and now he is a rune master in the early stage of the seventh grade." ”

Cheng Ling didn't expect Zhou Qi to have such a side, but since Zhou Changtian recommended it, it would not be too bad, so he instructed the other party to immediately choose some disciples and learn the remaining three ways.

A few days later, after dozens of rounds of teleportation, the first batch was phaseless

The monks of the Sword Sect came to Tongyou Valley, and the four halls of the Dan Fu Array were all led by the hall master, and there were a number of monks accompanying them. The three halls of Dan, Array, and Qi built corresponding places in the cave mansion, preparing to teach the monks selected by the Zhou family.

And Fu Tang, led by Fu Jian, plus several outstanding disciples, even the wind chimes came over together, and with the inheritance of the Zhou family in front of Zhou Qi, they studied Fu Dao.

Next, it was Wu Chenlong, Song Yingjie, and Zhang Hu who brought the disciples of the battle hall. As for Liu Qingyan and Xiyan, they stayed in the Wuxiang Sword Sect.

As soon as these people arrived, Cheng Ling stopped the teleportation array. The disciples of the Array Hall officially began to expand, and the disciples of the Battle Hall were distributed in the inner valley, guarding outside, surrounded by iron buckets. Although this approach is a bit of a declaration of war, Tongyougu has always been the clan land of the Zhou family, but the teleportation array is too involved, and it goes straight to the main peak of the Sword Pavilion, in case of any accident, the entire Wuxiang Sword Sect will be doomed.

He took Wu Chenlong, Song Yingjie, and Zhang Hu to Zhou Changtian's residence. The two sides sat down, and Cheng Ling asked, "Master Zhou, I don't know how the material procurement is going?"

Zhou Changtian said with a wry smile: "The progress is not big, mainly after a large number of purchases a year ago, the major forces have a sense of vigilance, although we have broken into zero, the amount of each purchase does not dare to be too much, the old man estimates, at least half a month." ”

Cheng Ling frowned, he couldn't afford to wait for half a month, the expansion of the teleportation array was in full swing, and there was no place for it to be easily completed without sufficient materials. After a short pause, he said, "In that case, then we'll take another approach." ”

Zhou Changtian perked up and asked, "What is Your Majesty's plan?"

Cheng Ling said: "Before that, the head of the Zhou family, there are still a few things to clarify with you. ”

"Your Excellency, please speak. ”

"The first thing is the teleportation array. At the moment, only you know about the existence of the teleportation array, but I don't think it's safe enough. I am going to close the entrance from the cave to the inner valley, and from now on, the inner valley can only be entered by our own people. ”

Zhou Changtian's face changed, a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Wu Chenlong and the three of them beside him, the other party's cultivation was similar to his own, plus a Cheng Ling, if they wanted to occupy the entire Tongyou Valley, it would be a matter of effort, and their own family would work hard, could it be to make wedding clothes for others.

Cheng Ling paused for a while, and waited for him to have a certain amount of time to digest before he said: "The Zhou family master doesn't have to worry about the sky, we don't have the slightest covetousness for Tongyougu, it's just that the teleportation array is too involved, and if I am not careful, my own sect will be affected." ”

"Therefore, I just want to ask the head of the Zhou family to cut his love and give up the inner valley area, what kind of compensation is needed, I can say it. ”

After listening to this, Zhou Changtian breathed a sigh of relief, but he could make amends, and he felt that he couldn't open his mouth.

Cheng Ling's eyes swept away, Wu Chenlong took a step forward, took out two storage rings, handed them over gently, and said, "Master Zhou, here are some pills for cultivation, and some treasures, just take it as compensation for the inner valley!"

Zhou Changtian took it, his divine sense swept away, and he was startled, and he almost couldn't hold the ring in his hand. There are countless pills inside, there are 10,000 treasures, and even dozens of top-grade sword weapons, such resources are enough for the children of the clan to be armed to the teeth.

He put away the two rings tremblingly, and said, "Thank you, Your Excellency, since you have a heart, then I will accept it." ”

Cheng Ling nodded, threw him another token, and said, "From today onwards, the inner valley area will be called Wuxiang Valley, and this token can make the Zhou family."

The Lord is free to come and go, and the rest of the people are not to enter easily. ”

"Yes, I will obey Your Excellency!"

"Okay, after the matter of Wuxiang Valley is discussed, the second thing is the next move. The seven major forces are restricting our procurement in Xiangcheng, so we have to find another way. These three are all monks in my sect, namely Wu Chenlong, Zhang Hu, and Song Yingjie. ”

Zhou Changtian saluted one by one, and Cheng Ling continued: "Since the seven major forces have focused their attention on Xiangcheng, we will take the initiative to attack and break their alliance with our living forces. The three of them will lead the monks in our sect to hide in the mountains, and once they find the monks of the seven major forces, they will take the opportunity to kill them and plunder their resources. ”

"Master Zhou, I hope you can also let the children of the clan participate in it, one is a necessary experience, blindly closed door penance, there may not be great progress, only in actual combat can you get greater gains. ”

"Second, the monks of the Zhou family are more familiar with the south, and how to effectively plunder the disciples of the seven major forces should be able to play a great role. ”

Zhou Changtian's divine sense swept away, and he said with a wry smile: "Your Excellency, the cultivation of these Taoist friends is not much different from the old man, and the children in my clan are far inferior, but I am afraid that the experience will not be successful, and it will increase the burden." ”

Cheng Ling said: "It's okay, my idea is to be led by the three of them, each with a team of 100 people, first try a knife, don't start from the place where there are many disciples of the seven major forces, but only use a small knife to cut the flesh and destroy their living force." ”

"If this continues, the participating monks will have more and more practical combat experience, and coupled with the cultivation environment in the clan land and the pills provided, they will be able to greatly improve their cultivation in the shortest possible time. At that time, more and more monks will join the battle, and they will become more powerful, and eventually form a powerful force that will be fiercely inserted into the hinterland of the seven major forces. ”

"Another point, that is, the mysterious power that we heard before, we can even confuse the public, don't show your true face when you shoot, so that the people of the seven major forces have an illusion, and you can't imagine the Zhou family at all. ”

"At that time, where will they still have the energy to take care of Xiangcheng, and it won't take much time for the Zhou family to make a decisive move and control the entire Xiangcheng in their hands. ”

After Cheng Ling finished speaking, he gently stroked his hand, leaned on the back of the chair, looked at Zhou Changtian indifferently, and waited for the other party's reply.

The more Zhou Changtian listened, the more shocked he became, there is no doubt that the method Cheng Ling said was indeed an excellent way to open the family to the outside world. Originally, with the strength of the Zhou family, it was impossible to do this, but now with the help of people from the Famous Sword Academy, it is different.

Constantly plundering the resources of the seven major forces, enriching themselves, and finally messing up the south and grabbing the time and space for development, the Zhou family will definitely be able to become strong steadily in the long run. However, he also knows that although the plan is beautiful, it is still extremely difficult to actually implement it.

With the strength of their hundreds of people, how can they gradually encroach on the seven major forces, not to mention that there is a more powerful Ouyang family behind them, if they are not careful, the Zhou family will be involved in the competition for interests, and will eventually be annihilated by several major forces.

Again, this is an extremely difficult multiple-choice question. To tell the truth, the changes that Cheng Ling brought to the Zhou family are obvious to all, with these resources, maybe after a hundred years, the Zhou family can return to its former glory, but it also has to face the conflict of interests with the major forces.

Now, it is to mention the situation that will happen in the future, how to seize the opportunity, and avoid the family from falling into a catastrophe, Zhou Changtian fell into contemplation for a long time.
